The new barn plans address and resolve the issues we were facing and also provides for the growth and development we have experienced since our beginnings. •Trailers can be backed up to a new receiving wash/examining stall to safely unload a newly admitted horse. This stall has direct access to a quarantine stall or a 20’x20’ holding/handling stall depending on need. Both will have access to an outdoor turnout for exercise or relaxation, and safe transfer to a training area within the 40’ center isle.•The wash/treatment area will have hot and cold water, wash sink, cabinetry for supplies and allow for veterinary exams and treatments. Refrigeration and a heated cabinet are included to keep medications at proper temperature. As well as meeting present needs, this provides for future programs for veterinarian technicians and pre-veterinarian programs.•The 40’ wide center isle is spacious enough for training, “hands on clinics” and existing and future programs, demonstrations and evaluations.•There is also 20 10x12’ stalls in the wings of this barn, providing some privacy and protection to the horses. They are easily assessable and have clear routes to turnout. •This barn connects the two existing buildings, so all is under one cover.•The second floor offers classroom space for students, programs, etc. Space is planned to allow an observation area to the indoor riding ring.•This plan met our priority of allowing maximum natural light, warmth and ventilation with placement of numerous windows and cupola. Not to mention a first floor heated bathroom for volunteers and the public, located just behind the receiving/wash/examining stall.

Tidbits

Bush Brook Farm was built in 1980 on 63 acres of land, to be home to a 6 year old mustang. It was a long time dream of Mona Jerome and made possible by her devoted husband Brad. It was just the beginning of something bigger and of greater importance.

Mona followed her passion for wild horses and volunteered many hours assisting contractors for the Bureau of Land Management at New England Satellite Adoptions, participated in yearly wild horse workshops offered by least Resistance Training Concepts throughout the west, and learning about the wild horse from those with many years of experience. In addition she has attended and participated in clinics with nationally known trainers.

In 2002, with the encouragement and help of Brad, Mona founded Ever After Mustang Rescue, Training and Education Center. Since that time it has been a refuge for unwanted, neglected and abused mustangs. With nearly 30 years of experience Mona has facilitated the healing of mind and body, restoring the horse to the proud, intelligent creature he is.

Education continues with every horse we work with and continuing to attend workshops and training clinics. The rescue places an average of 2-3 horses a year to approved homes. The Rescue Center is also host to several yearly clinics, workshops and training progr
